I am Frederico Valentim from Angola I do not agree with some requirements ,especificaly the
selection criteria that says: Applicants must have a good standard of written and spoken English,
and meet the Chevening Scholarships language. I am speaking not just for me but yes on behalf of
the people from Angola. How good can be an angolan citizen at english. In my personal opinion
and according to our reality some selection criteria especificaly, about english test should be
analyzed over and over again.I just toke the Toefl TEST more than once and I failed, I do
acknowledge that I did not achieve the acceptable score, but according to our education system I
could not help it.
